Purpose: This guide is an overview of the search functionality, what is searchable, and how to best surface information within Cleary
Overview
What is Searchable?
Cleary's search enables employees to search across almost every aspect of your company to quickly retrieve the information they need. When searching for a term, it'll search across:
- People
- Go/links
- Articles
- Pages
- User's skills
- Teams
- Events (including Questions & Answer)
- Search Integrations (Learn more by clicking below)
Cleary's integrations with Confluence and Google Drive provide the flexibility to adopt the strategy of providing access to information that fits your company best. You can either migrate all information into Cleary so it operates as a single Source of Truth (SOT), or utilize search integrations to make Cleary a single Point of Access (POA).
Adopting an SOT strategy could help reduce budgets by consolidating tools, but sometimes information needs to live in tools like Confluence. This is where a POA approach can balance the needs teams and individuals with recording and accessing knowledge.
Refining your Search
When you search for a term with many results, it'll display a "View All Results" option that will take you to a breakdown of the search results by category. From here, you can continue to refine your search for people and view results across the other categories.
